Style Imitating Art-The Counting Lesson

Posted byterrigardner1Posted inArt History, Style Imitating ArtTags:

Welcome to the third Style Imitating Art challenge for 2021.

About Style Imitating Art

Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar of 14 Shades of Grey, Daenel of Living Outside the Stacks and me. Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. Every other Monday one of us selects an inspiration image and we each post the image on our blogs. The following Monday we share our art-inspired outfits. The following Wednesday, the curator shares all of the submissions on her blog.

This Week’s Presenter

Today, Daenel of Living Outside the Stacks is the curator.

This Week’s Inspirational Image

Daenel has chosen The Counting Lesson by Albert Huie. Daenel chose this painting because there are so many options for colors and patterns. She also just likes the image of a young girl learning to count. You can see the focus in her eyes.

This is such a wonderful painting, isn’t it? I already have a few ideas floating around in my head.

Will You Join In the Fun?

I hope this art inspires you to create a look and that you will join us. Send a photo of your SIA inspired outfit along with a small blurb on how you were inspired to Daenel whose email is livingoutsidethestacks@gmail.com by February 9th. She share the submissions on her blog on Wednesday February 10th.

Anyone can participate and you certainly do not have to have a blog.

If you do share your inspirations on Instagram use the hashtag #StyleImitatingArt so we know you are there. You can also tag us in the images. Our Instagram names are: terrigardner_meadowtree, daenelt and 14shadesofgrey.

Take care and create on!

Retiring after thirty-two years as a K-12 visual arts teacher, Terri Gardner now devotes time to a long and early interest: fashion. With her blog, MeadowTree Style, Terri advocates for developing a personal and creative style. She encourages finding fashion in ethical ways such as shopping at consignment/thrift shops, creating it yourself, as well as supporting local designers. Her second blog, Time for Poodles and Friends, advocates for rescued animals. Her interests dating from childhood led to her sense of fashion, doing, and living. These interests include sewing, spinning yarn, knitting, design, and giving space for animals. She lives on a small Missouri farm with her husband, a large garden, and several animals including chickens and ducks, dogs and cats, and Shetland sheep and Alpacas. For her beloved rescued dogs, Terri created dog accessories and made them available under the label Sophia & Niko–Exclusive Design for the Distinctive Dog.
